Filed: 1994-01-10
Abstract: A replacement sports helmet face shield assembly has a  cold-weather  ventilation  system  for  face  shield defogging  without  circulating  cold  air  through  the interior of the sports helmet.  The assembly has a face shield frame that carries a face shield.  The frame has a lower face shield frame vent and an upper face shield frame vent.  The upper portion of the frame may have an air flow director which, when the assembly is mounted on a sports helmet, directs air entering the upper frame vent.  The directed air flow creates a vacuum that draws air entering the lower frame vent substantially upward along an interior surface of said face shield.  A sports helmet assembly has a versatile, adjustable ventilation system which can operate in a defog-only mode in cold weather, a defog and interior ventilation mode in warmer weather,  and an interior ventilation-only mode when no defogging is desired.   The assembly includes a sports helmet with at least one helmet air entry vent on a front portion of the helmet and at least one air exit vent on a rear helmet portion.  The helmet assembly also includes a face shield frame that carries a face shield and  is rotatably mounted onto the sports helmet.  The frame has lower and upper frame vents located on the lower frame portion.  The helmet entry vent and the frame vents may be selectively opened and closed.

Abstract: An electrostatic relay comprises at least one fixed base having a fixed electrode and an actuator frame having a movable electrode.  The fixed base carries a pair of fixed contacts insulated from the fixed electrode.  The movable electrode carries a movable contact insulated from the movable electrode.  The movable electrode extends along the fixed electrode and is pivotally supported at its one longitudinal end relative to the fixed base so as to pivot between two contacting positions of closing and opening the movable contact to and from the fixed contacts.  The movable contact is formed at the other longitudinal end of the movable electrode.  A control voltage source is connected across the fixed electrode and the movable electrode to generate a potential difference therebetweeen for developing an electrostatic force by which the movable electrode is attracted toward said fixed electrode to move into one of the two contacting positions.  The electrostatic relay is characterized in that the movable electrode is cooperative with the fixed electrode to define therebetween an elongate gap which is narrower toward the one longitudinal end about which the movable electrode pivot than at the other longitudinal end of the movable electrode at which the movable contact is carried.

Filed: 1994-07-07
Abstract: To execute a series of operations for hibernation and wake-up at a high speed in a system in which an address for saving the content of the main memory serves as a hibernation file managed by the OS file  system  ,  when  the  information processing  system  enters hibernation mode,  the  system accesses an area on an external storage device where file allocation information managed by the OS file  system  thereby  obtaining  allocation  information  of  the hibernation file and input the information into a buffer.   The system uses allocation information in the buffer to  save the content  of  the  main  memory  and  VRAM  as  well  as  allocation information into the hibernation file.   In addition, the address information at the location on the external storage device where allocation information is  saved is  stored in a predetermined control information area.  When the system is woken up, allocation information already residing in the hibernation file is used to restore the main memory and VRAM from the hibernation file.

Title: Pocket Size Laser Power Meter
Inventor: LAAKMAN PETER
IPC: G01K17/00
Filed: 1994-03-31
Abstract: A pocket size laser power meter adapted to measure the power of laser energy emitted by a laser. The power meter includes a thermal mass adapted to receive the laser energy. A temperature sensor coupled to the thermal mass translates temperature changes in the thermal mass into an electrical sensor signal having a variable voltage. A differentiator coupled to the temperature sensor receives the electrical sensor signal and produces a differentiated signal indicative of the rate of change of voltage of the electrical sensor signal. A cooling rate holding circuit coupled to the differentiator receives a cooling portion of the differentiated signal indicating a lowering of the temperature of the thermal mass. A heating rate holding circuit coupled to the differentiator receives a heating portion of the differentiated signal indicating a raising of the temperature of the thermal mass. A display meter coupled to the holding circuits adds the cooling and heating portions of the differentiated signal together, translates the differentiated signal into a power reading, and displays the power reading to a operator.
Patent CA-2122408-A1 (CA)
Inventor: MUIR DAVE A
IPC: B23K26/073
Filed: 1994-04-28
Abstract: In the process of U-ing and O-ing for the manufacture of large diameter pipe, it is proposed to either tack-weld or continuously weld the abutting edges of the O-ed pipe while it remains in the O-ing press, by using a source of laser power to project a beam of laser energy lengthwise down the center of the O-ed pipe, the beam being focused on the pipe seam at the 12 o'clock position by an optics carriage travelling lengthwise within the pipe on a cantilevered or end-supported boom. With the laser producing a continuous laser beam of constant energy, the carriage can move progressively from one end to the other of the pipe at a speed which allows a continuous weld to be created at the seam. Alternatively, the seam can be tack-welded but using the same apparatus, by moving the carriage in a fast-slow cycle, the slow portion allowing the focused laser energy to create a moving keyhole of molten metal at the seam, while the fast movement is rapid enough to minimize melting the metal at the seam. In another mode the source of laser energy can operate in a stop-start cycle, with the carriage either stopping or travelling at a low speed to allow the intermittent laser energy to form a spot or a short length of tack-weld at the seam.
